Description:

This circular walk from a quintessential Cotswold village  follows five ‘Ways’: Gustav Holst, Diamond, Wardens’, Windrush and Winchcombe. Leaving the village on the Gustav Holst, Wardens’ and Diamond Ways, we soon join the Windrush Way which takes us past the sites of two ‘Lost Villages’ and up to Guiting Wood, where we will have a lunch stop. Here, we rejoin the Wardens’ Way, which together with the Diamond Way and Winchcombe Way, lead back to Guiting Power.
